Reply #153: You can, of course, read my post however you want to

and you can read into it whatever you like. The fact of the matter is that there are often posts here that declare that the GLBT struggle is of no less importance and of no less hardship than that of the AA's in the 60's. If you want to think my post "minimizes the risks of being gay in America" that's up to you. However, besides Matthew Shepard and a few others, there are few other examples that compare to the perils of a Black man minding his own business and walking down a country road in Mississippi in 1958 or in Paris, Texas in 1998.
